I'm no dev so please excuse the stupid questions. You mention "by default". What exactly is the issue here? With Debian, if I need mysql support I simply install the extra package postfix-mysql, which depends on libmysqlclient. (This is the same procedure for acquiring pgsql, pcre, cdb, ldap, etc capability) So by installing the package postfix-mysql and libmysqlclient, am I violating a license agreement? If not, what's the difference, and why? Thanks. -- Stan
